THE ROSE GARDEN IS OPEN

This Week:

​The Roseto Comunale opened early this year, on April 11, and it's free to visit through June 14. No ticket, no reservation, and it's one of the best things you can do on your trip to Rome.

How to plan your visit

The entrance is at Via di Valle Murcia 6, near the Circus Maximus metro stop. Hours are 8:30am to 7:30pm daily. Peak bloom is in May, but there's plenty to see now.

The Giardino degli Aranci (Orange Garden) is a short walk up the hill and pairs well with this. You could do both in about an hour.

More gardens and green spaces in Rome

The rose garden is one of many green spaces in Rome that most visitors walk right past. Some are tucked behind churches, others inside palazzo courtyards.

I put together a guide to the ones I think are worth seeking out.

View this email in your browser Inside the Colosseum HOW TO VISIT THE ARENA FLOOR This Week: One of the most common questions I get about visiting the Colosseum is how to get out onto the arena floor. It's where gladiators fought, animals popped up through trap doors, and prisoners met their end. Standing on it gives you a completely different sense of the place. Here's how to book this visit, what's included, and what to do if tickets are sold out. ROME'S ARENA FLOOR THE FULL GUIDE Book it...
